Classic Screenplay Collection (Bound Scripts)

Bound shooting scripts of Chinatown, Annie Hall, Thelma & Louise, American Beauty, and The Shawshank Redemption. These are the scripts I used in my workshops for decades. Read them with a highlighter. Study how they handle plot points. Tip: Read scripts, not books about scripts.

Tang Soo Do Fundamentals -- From White to Green Belt

Traditional Korean martial arts training. We start with basic stances, blocks, and kicks. No flashy nonsense -- just solid technique that works. I'll teach the same forms I learned at Osan Air Base in 1958. Tip: Your roundhouse kick should come from the hip, not the knee. Most beginners kick with their leg. Champions kick with their whole body.

Heavy Bag (100lb Leather) + Speed Bag Station

Professional-grade heavy bag and speed bag mounted on a steel frame. The heavy bag teaches power. The speed bag teaches timing. Use both. I hit these every morning before sunrise and have since 1962.

Total Gym XLS (The Machine That Actually Works)

The same Total Gym model I use personally. Over 80 exercises on one machine using your own body weight. Incline bench, cable pulls, squats, core work. I'm not just the spokesman -- I've used this thing every day for 30 years.

Action Scene Workshop -- How to Throw a Punch on Camera

Film fighting is NOT real fighting. I'll teach you camera angles, pull distances, reaction timing, and how to sell a hit. We'll choreograph a 30-second fight scene by the end of the session. Bruce Lee taught me the value of screen combat efficiency -- I'm passing it on.

Board Breaking Kit (Pine + Rebreakable Plastic)

Stack of 1-inch pine boards plus rebreakable plastic boards in 5 difficulty levels. Tip: Breaking boards is not about strength. It's about focus, follow-through, and believing your hand goes THROUGH the board, not TO it.

Method Acting Intensive -- Becoming the Character

Two-hour session. We don't rehearse lines -- we build a life. Where did your character grow up? What does their kitchen smell like? What song makes them cry? Once you know that, the lines say themselves. Stella Adler's approach: imagination over memory. Tip: If you're thinking about acting, you're not acting.

Scene Study Workshop -- Reacting, Not Acting

Bring a scene partner. We work two scenes in two hours. I watch, I redirect, I provoke. Most actors prepare what they're going to say. Wrong. Prepare to LISTEN. The other actor's lines should change something in you every single time.

Stella Adler's Acting Technique (First Edition)

Stella Adler's own handbook, first edition. She studied with Stanislavski in Paris -- the only American actor who did. This book is the foundation. Strasberg got the attention, but Adler got the method right.

Makeup & Prosthetics Kit -- Physical Transformation

The kit I used to age myself for the Godfather screen test. Spirit gum, cotton balls, dental plumpers, hairpieces, and scar wax. Your face is clay. Tip: Physical transformation starts a chain reaction -- change your jaw and your voice changes, your posture shifts, the character emerges from the body outward.

Improvisation for Film Actors -- Finding the Moment

Film improv is not comedy improv. It's about being so deeply in character that when the script breaks, you don't. The 'I coulda been a contender' speech in On the Waterfront -- half of that was written, half was felt. Learn to blur the line.

Screen Presence Workshop -- Less Is Everything

I teach you what Billy Wilder taught me: the camera sees everything you're thinking. You don't need to show it -- you need to FEEL it. We work on stillness, listening, and the art of the reaction shot. Tip: Most young actors try to DO too much. Stop doing. Start being.
